EARLY TREATMENT
At Choonara Orthodontics, we encourage you to address dental concerns as early as possible. Early evaluation lets our specialists diagnose problems quickly and design a more efficient treatment plan. We recommend that every child have an initial orthodontic check-up by age 7, even if no obvious issues are present.
EARLY SCREENING TREATMENT: WHY FROM AGE 7?
A first orthodontic visit by age 7 lets us spot early warning signs:
• crowding or gaps
• crossbite or open bite
• thumb sucking or mouth breathing habits
• chewing or speech difficulty
Catching problems early keeps future treatment shorter, simpler and less costly.
